Took a look at the preliminary list at 
http://www.cuis-smalltalk.org/community

I think the 'What's new?' should a a bit less, not more than 3 or 4 per 
year.

Also, I don't think I'd host them. I have little involvement on most of 
the interesting things that are going on in and around Cuis, I want to 
listen more and talk less in them. Maybe a week before each `What's 
new?` meeting we could allocate divide the 30 minutes in several short 
slots for anybody willing to tell about what's new from them, i.e. 
anything they think it is worth telling and has happened after the 
previous 'what's new?'.

WRT to the planned talks, I suggest adding one from you, Hilaire about 
DrGeo. Repeating stuff published elsewhere is ok. These talks are about 
raising awareness in the community about the stuff we are already doing. 
I'd also like to tell more about some things I did with Cuis that I 
haven't shown much in recent times. So, this is my proposal, adding and 
reordering as It pleases me today. Just an opinion! In any case, 
Hilaire, as you are who suggested this in the first place, the ordering 
of the list is your call. Anyway:

- What's new. The community. To be done perhaps 3 times a year, i.e. 
repeating after 3 regular meetings.

- Hernán Wilkinson - LiveTyping. Introduction to the concept. 
Possibilities. Demo.

- Gerald Klix - Haver part I. A Cuis based Smalltalk With Modules.

- Ken Dickey - Bézier curves. Manipulate Bézier curves with Morph 
through end-point and control-point handles to the HaloMorph.

- Hilaire Fernandes - DrGeo. Short introduction to the objective and 
concepts. Demo.

- Gerald Klix - Haver part II. A Cuis based Smalltalk With Modules.

- Hernán Wilkinson - Teaching Cuis. How we teach OO using Smalltalk 
(DenotativeObjects, etc).

- Nicola Mingotti - Cuis on BeagleBone. Commercial Cuis application 
running on a touch screen GUI in a BeagleBone.

- Juan Vuletich - Image processing.

- Hernán Wilkinson - Demo and mini tutorial on Automatic Refactoring.

- Nicola Mingotti - Web application on Cuis.

- Hernán Wilkinson - Refactoring with Cuis. A demo of all the 
refactoring tools we have right now and the ones we are working on.

- Dave Lewis - How to write a simple VM plugin in Cuis.

- Juan Vuletich - Cartography, panet wide datasets and satellite image 
rectification.

- Hernán Wilkinson - The Spotlight. Very useful tool written by Nicolás 
Papagna Maldonado.

- Juan Vuletich - Sound and music in Cuis.

- Hernán Wilkinson - Extract Method Object refactoring.

- Hernán Wilkinson - TDD Guru. A tool to see how well you are doing TDD.

- Hernán Wilkinson - Code Coverage tool. Nico Papagna.

There are many other projects, of course. Authors, please sign up for a 
slot!
